During a stressful moment in the middle of the night we had our first split. And afterwards we were very, very lost. So we turned to Tumblr and got to adapting and curating our spaces. As time went on, we realized that the community is very...split, if you will.
Which made sense, being plural is very complicated! It's a disorder but also can be spiritual and not disordered at all. But I've seriously never seen levels of fakeclaiming this bad.
Let alone these levels of our own community wishing our kind didn't exist.
The art is inspired by a "The Future is Singlet" art piece.
Trauma doesn't define our existence. And if you believe that plurality is only caused by disorders, to say you wish an entire form of neurodivergentcy to not exist is pretty fucking weird.
if the future is plural are you silencing all systems into submission that dont want to be plural
if the future is female are you silencing trans men into submission (like many were raised) just because they identify under an old standard? are you forcing them to detransition? are you forcing men to live with dysphoria too in addition to the currently standard dysphoria trans people themselves live with until/in the process of transitioning?
if the future is queer, do you silence everyone into hiding or silence if they aren't queer?
if the future is trans, do you silence all cis people into submission or force them to transition?
the future is claims are all just genocide targeted at different groups, usually groups that currently hold majority. what is the point of genocide.
As systems and Plurals we all have a responsibility to make art at least once. Its good for the body, and the soul, but most importantly it's good for the community. Art brings connections and emotions forward. Stories are art as are the web graphics and userboxes you all tend to make.
Art is communication. And if being a faggot has ever taught me anything, it's that we have to be very loud about our communication whether it is on our main accounts or side blogs. It is the only way others will understand on a humane level
you should be kinder to people that have differing views than you. Maybe being nice to people that are "anti-endo" will help you understand their point of view and why they think that way. at the end of the day, you both just want to have your own safe spaces. is it truly so terrible of them to want for a space away from people who cannot relate to the horrific trauma they've been through?
Initial Creator of Sysclusive, Barbxed Wire's response, aka, the rare syscourse post we will use with this blog.
Being endogenic and traumatized aren't mutually exclusive. Endogenic means trauma didn't cause your plurality, not that you don't have trauma. But being endogenic is also a self imposed label, not a medical one. If you like it, regardless of accuracy or diagnosis or whatever, then you can use it.
That being said, you're going to get Endogenics who BELONG in CDD spaces, trauma spaces, etc no matter what.
There is no such thing as an endo-free system experience.
We have not unkindly interacted nor harassed anti endos. Usually it is the other way around, (funnily enough, on the same day we got this ask, we've been told to go get hit by a train). The only reason anti endos interacted with us (other than to insult and threaten) was due to someone else telling them about our blog. Otherwise, we don't use anti endo tags (syspunk is mixed stances and we don't count it as being anti Endo. Syspunk was predominantly pro when we first saw it and started using it long before we started this blog).
People have their reasons for being anti endo whether it be from past trauma or frustration or confusion. Hurt people hurt people. I do not wish any repeated harm nor trauma against anti endos. We do not tag the original creators as to not direct an audience they do not want nor like to their blogs. We do not condone harassment of anti endos. I understand why they, anti endos, may behave the way they do and hold the beliefs they do.
It is irrelevant.
If I am to end this post with one piece of advice that you can take out into the general, mainstream community, it is this: It is not the responsibility of the people a group hates to be the understanding ones.
Any responses to this post will be reblogged and responded to by me, @pluricfag . For further questions and conversation, feel free to use my inbox.
I will never understand "the future is singlet" people. Why would you wish for the future to be "neurotypical" where systems don't exist anymore?It's so damn strange to me.
